sceptikart Posted January 20, 2009 Share Posted January 20, 2009 Hello, This is my very first post on this forum (sorry for my bad english please) and i decided to post here after about 5 days spending to get leopard work on my pc. I have tried all the versions of leopard dvd i've found on internet and all the ways i've known and discovered on internet but all it was in vain. I fear that my system won't wear that beautiful fur of the Leopard... The far as i cand get it was the apple boot logo with the spining circle... I really appreciate if someone would help me to find a solution. Here i will post my system specifications: CPU: Processor Model Intel Pentium (6x86) Type Primary Processor Logical CPU Count 2 Physical Memory 2^36 Bit (64 GB) Vendor Intel Corporation Family 6th Generation of UMC Processors Product Code SLA95 Hardcoded Name Intel® Core2 Duo CPU E4500 @ 2.20GHz Rated Frequency 2.20 GHz Measured Frequency 2194 MHz Family/Model/Stepping 6/15/13 Bus Speed 800 MHz Bus/Core Ratio 11 PCG 06 L2 Cache Size 2 MB Motherboard: Motherboard Information Motherboard Model Wolfdale1333-GLAN Motherboard Vendor Unknown Chipset Model 82945G/GZ/P/PL Processor to I/O Controller Chipset Vendor Intel Corporation BIOS Model AMIBIOS 080012 BIOS Vendor American Megatrends Inc.

Nvidia gforce 7300 GT I hope i didn't miss something useful. Thanx in advance!

satara nights Posted January 20, 2009 Share Posted January 20, 2009 Try to boot with -v optino (press F8 at boot) so you can give some detailed information. Don't know your motherboard.. But when I succesfully intalled leopard on my P4 I used the Leo4all (10.5.2) distro... now with a pc like yours (except motherboard) I could intall the leo, Jas, Iatkos and iPC (really like the last one) Maybe you're choosing wrong drivers??

Guest Posted January 20, 2009 Share Posted January 20, 2009 I would also suggest review which Customizations you are using, and sometimes it is better to check on the developer websites (ie for Leo4All check eddie11c posts to see customizations) and find the best for your own system. Sometimes it is also a video driver that can cause this problem and sometimes it is a better option not to install any video drivers at all leading you to the normal 1024x768 view. Also, at boot-up try using -v to see where and how this problem occurs, by the way the spinning circle problem is quite a common problem (after reboot), so maybe some googling to see some general ways to solve it. If you can't find a solution, then usually searching this forum is also a good idea. Another idea if you haven't already is check the Wiki Compatability List for comp versions close to yours, you may then get an idea of exactly (roughly) which Leopard install version may work best. Unless ofcourse your version isn't on there...
